Today is Tuesday, July 1, and on this day in 1948, Bill Bowerman became the head track coach at the University of Oregon.

On this episode, we discuss Bowerman's legacy as both a coach to some of the best runners of the mid-20th century and as someone who helped spread running to everyday people. Then, we'll meet Coach Bowerman's middle son, Jay, to learn what he was like away from the track.
